Hello and Welcome,
I joined last month. I was feeling a bit of that at first, but then I just started posting, replying, and going to some members pages and continuing the conversation of what they've posted, or just to say hello. Also, I joined some Social groups too. The Coffee house is a good place to start, when it comes to getting to know people. You'll start to see the active members who come on most days... and they are a friendly bunch.
So far, all has been good here. Great support, friendly members, helpful advice and lots of wisdom coming from interesting people from around the globe.
(((Hugs)))
